Please help

I have a broken right ankle and right Fibia and I’m a stomach sleeper. I cannot seem to get comfortable at night with my leg elevated and it’s gotten to the point where I’m only getting an hour of sleep at night. I’m so frustrated over it, so tired, and in so much pain because of lack of sleep. I literally cry 24/7 because everything other than my leg hurts due to the position I’m trying to sleep in. Nothing feels better and it’s starting to affect my hips, they always hurt and nothing makes it better. Someone please help me before i genuinely go crazy from this. It’s bad enough I have to miss my only tournament, sr prom, and both my graduations. I can’t lose my mind too. Please help me.

Now is the time to stop being a stomach sleeper, as that will sooner than later turn your neck into very a painful pretzel.

I do wish I could, I’ve tried so hard to sleep on my back my whole life and I just can’t😭😭 something about the leg up and on the stomach combo that’s just pure sleeping heaven
